Question

Paraphrase the following passage:

All employee e-mail accounts should be used only for business purposes; use of company e-mail accounts for personal
messages is strictly prohibited. All e-mail is company property and the company reserves the right to access any e-mail sent to
or from any company personal computer. E-mails sent from company e-mail accounts may not contain libelous, slanderous, or
generally offensive content and may not be used to harass any other employee or customer. Employees who violate this policy
are subject to HR discipline up to and including termination, depending on the violation and its consequences.

Answer 1

The usage of official e-mail accounts by employees should be strictly restricted to business-related communication only. Personal messages must not be sent through company e-mails. The company owns all e-mail correspondence, and can review any e-mail sent or received on office computers. Any e-mails transmitted through official accounts should not contain any abusive, defamatory, or insulting content, nor should they be used to harass fellow employees or customers. Those violating this policy are liable to HR penalties, which may lead to their termination, depending on the severity and consequences of the offense.
